Is everybody that flies a Confederate flag racist? No.

Is the flag itself racist? Absolutely. It's stylized after the battle flag of a state that rebelled to protect slavery and was popularized by racist terror organizations during reconstruction and by anti-civil rights organizations during the 20th. Just because the Duke boys and Lynyrd Skynyrd liked it as well doesn't change those facts, just that some then and now are dumb to allow the intentional obfuscation of the flag's origins to go over their head.

Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less.
